 ENJOY ALL!
 
Just phone mode at this point because it's mostly stock for stability, but more customizations are coming. The Dev posted this on Twitter this morning:

@nitroglycerine33: Awesome new features coming to Eclipse toro and grouper soon. Adding maguro and toro plus support sometime this week too!

This is a great ROM, nice usage of space, clean, slick, and easy to install. Does this happen to work with Franco's kernel?
 
If Franco kernel has been updated to support 4.2.1, it should be just fine to flash over the current kernel.
 
OK one other thing I've noticed, stickmount worked really well with my afterglow ap2 wireless ps3 controller, now when I unmount it, it freezes up my whole tablet. So far everything I've used with otg has frozen it. Any ideas?
 
maybe this is a dumb question but if it is just for phones, will it work on my nexus?? and if it is not for tablets why should i put it on my nexus, i am thinking of trying it but something here isnt clicking with me, maybe my clicker is broke???

ROMs are always device specific, this is only for Grouper (codename for Nexus 7).
 
Just flashed. Really like it. Feel like 4.2 based ROMs are even faster than 4.1. Both on my Gnex (ParanoidAndroid) and now N7. Multiuser option is nice as well. :)
 
Build 3 is close to be uploaded. Nitro ran into an issue with the contacts app, but once that gets sorted out, it should be good to go.
 
Merry Christmas from Nitro, Build 3 is up. I think there's a problem with Dev host though because it keeps timing out when I try to download it.
 
Fixed the link, sorry for it being broken. Not sure if we're going to see any builds for a while since it seems Nitro has shifted his focus to the S3.
